Hahahaaaa that's one of my favorite lines!
I think the bond between Alice and Jacob is classic.

And then Jacob's like "It broke another rib?" and Alice is like "No, pelvis this time".

It's a cute twist how Alice becomes dependant on Jacob. I love the narration Jake gives when Alice comes down the stairs and it's like "Alice looked at me like I was late for some type of appointment..." ha :]

"I smiled. Edward and Alice playing chess was one of the funniest things I'd ever seen. They'd sat there nearly motionless, staring at the board, while Alice foresaw the moves he would make and he picked the moves she would make in retrun out of her head. They played most of the game in their minds; I think they'd each moved two pawns when Alice suddenly flicked her king over and surrendered. It took all of three minutes."

That section of the book ive re-read soo many times!! =]]
I love it when Edward says that quote!!

"Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars—points of light and reason… And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything"
